Oh No!! My dad forced us to watch that! Well, we could have left the room, but were generally glued to the set.


"oh remember me when the candle lights are burnin'
remember me at the close of a long, long day\
it would be so sweet in all the dreams I'm dreamin'
just to know that you remember me."


John Fetzer owned WKZO (3) TV and radio and he owned the Tigers, too. Back when Jim Campbell was General Manager and the 2 of them did their best to have the cheapest run team in the bigs...it was inspite of them that the Tigies won in '68.

Buck Barry was on WOOD-TV out of Grand Rapids. He had retired to New Mexico or Arizona and passed away just a couple of years ago. He really was a neat guy!

You got it! He was an event at our house too. I thought I could slip that one past the Freepers. I should have known better.

Yes, he was a great guy. Compare that to the nonsense on network TV now.

WOOD-TV. We only got two stations back then, Channels 3 and 8, CBS and NBC. It was a major event when WUHQ moved into the area, Channel 41. They held a grand opening, and passed out FREE UHF loop antennas for your TV. Then we could get three, count'em, THREE TV stations! This must sound laughable to young people now.

Karri, I don't know if I'd ever told you.
I went to school with Buck Barry's son. He was one grade behind me.
His son was a jerk.
